I found what appears to be a BBC in a junk yard. Its just a short block but theres dome pistons so somthings up. I found the Pad ID numbers off the passenger side front of the block they appear to be very long though. they are

TO825TV18S103262

What would this be? It had big ol honkin' 2 bolt main caps. I know it wasnt a small block but seemed small for a BB. Anyone know? It did have dome pistons thats what cought my eye. Thanks in advance...

ttt...anyone?

what is the casting number on the left rear ledge????..... I looked up TV suffix with no luck, T alone is a 58-59 348ci truck engine. The V could be part of the VIN.

Could it be IV instead of TV. IV is a 396/325hp.

could be a 396 with the IV suffix..........you can make sure with the casting number.
